- For this edition of "The Beauty of Japanese Swords," I went to meet Ms. Yuriko Seshimo of Ginza Maruei, a young female sword dealer whowill lead the sword world in the future. She shared with us hersensitivity as a woman, which was very inspiring.
いい刀剣達……見るも良し、なれど本質は武具、正しく知り、子々孫々まで扱う技術と術理と積み上げた武術を継承する事が今を担う我々武芸者と職人達ではないかと考えさせられました。
貴重な映像、有り難うございます
I spent 4 years in Japan with the United states military. I immediately fell in love with the people and culture. Still fascinated after more than 25 years later. The respect and reverence she shows and the passion for these swords is inspiring and endearing. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for watching.
I appreciate the English subtitles. Thank you for your hard work 🙇♂️
Thank you very much for watching.
there are subtitles click the icon left of the settings one the bottom bar
I was lucky enough to learn about this back in 1968-87 period. I got to sit in on lectures and view some very important collections back them. I still have a small group of artifacts laying around. Even though I learned a lot I barely scratched the surface. Have fun learning about the past.
Would never of thought that a shop like these would exists would be so cool to see
The engraving in that tanto is absolutely incredible! Getting that level of detail carving into steel would be absolutely painstaking and yet delicate, precision work.
Exactly, and during the 16th century?? wow
Being a Blacksmith, I have always enjoyed seeing and appreciating the craftmanship of Japanese steel. I think that every one of these beautiful specimens has part of the soul of the maker in them. I especially have great regard for Ms. Seshimo for showing the virtue of the Bushido code of "Respect" by bowing to the blade, which it deserves, as she appraises it.
They may look old-fashioned and ancient, but this lady sells cutting edge technology :D
Old but still gold
Ba dum tss...
As a student of Budo Taijutsu for 25 years I always had a passion for the Japanese sword. As a Christian man I found it pretty awesome she was wearing a cross necklace
Like so many things in Japan, an object embodies an entire story, a history. Wonderful!
Thank you very much for watching video and your massage.
I couldn't agree more. I always love the story, grace and perfection.
Thank you so much for the English subtitles and allowing more people to enjoy and to be a part of this piece of Japan’s history and future.
Yes. or... Hai. There are so many more videos lately that have very good subtitles.
Remarkable! Beautiful swords from a beautiful woman!
Thank you very much for including subtitles. It's allowed me to appreciate and learn more.
Wonderful, clearly each sword has its own personality, it’s own place in history. Well done.
Thank you very much.
Wow. The training of an expert eye. I so admire their culture for the dedication to true craftsmanship. Hold onto it Japan and never let that go. Its a treasure more precious than gold.
one of my life goals is to visit these shops and look at the swords with my own eyes!
This is great! I am a student of batto-do, and love watching this kind of thing. I can't wait to go back to Japan!
Arigatou gozaimasu. Nihongo benkyoshimasu mada jouzu ja arimasen. I understand Supaingo, Eigo, Portuguese so thank you for the subtitles. I lived for a few months in your Country; is a great place. I remember to went to this famous Katana maker in Kamakura but the workshop was closed. I appreciate the pace, the femininity and style of the Woman in the video too.
Mite itadaite arigatougizaimasu.
The beauty of Japanese people and Japanese culture should be the title. 🤗
I love the concept of “always learning.”
That's one thing that must be an honour to own . Is a genuine Katana which has history behind it. I found this video facinating. Thank you x
Beautiful swords and beautiful lady, what more to ask! 👑
私は鬼滅の刃からごく最近、日本刀に興味を持つようになりました。
そして女性刀剣商の方がいらしゃる事を今回初めて知りました。
刀剣＝男性…と思いがちですが、女性から広がる日本刀の伝統を広められたら素敵だと思います。
頑張って欲しいです。
ご視聴そしてコメントを頂き有難うございます。実は、女性と刀剣は歴史的にも文化的にも深いつながりもあり、これから『日本刀の美』ではそんな新しい刀剣の世界や伝統など、さまざまな情報を皆様にお届け出来ればと思います。今後共『日本刀の美』を是非応援下さい。宜しくお願い致します。
Thank you for sharing the beauty of the sword and the story of this dealer. New subscriber.
Thank you for sharing a precious knowledge (part 1, 2, 3).
Wonderful, relaxing video. That’s not a comment you’d expect about a video involving swords. And yet, there it is.
You are fortunate if you can experience the beauty and warmth of the Japanese people.
They are so meticulous and respectful towards their work ! Love it
I read somewhere that as a result of World War 2, there are more Samurai swords in America than in Japan. Many Japanese officers took their family heirlooms with them to war.
Nothing but respect for this Lady and her studies.
Amazing culture. The level of respect and care they take in all things is inspirational.
I love that a woman is in this line of work! She’s so dedicated 🧡
What a beautiful world I have entered into since I started to collect Japanese swords [there is just so much to learn and to understand] and a lesson learned "what is most important is to keep it in your memory its all about continuing to remember" thank you for the English subtitles.
Great video thank you. I look forward to future video's.
Thank you so much for producing these videos about Japan's rich metallurgical history. I especially like your showcasing of the World of Tantos. Japan looks beautiful!
Amazing! To see such beauty in something this old is awesome. Wow to be able to know the sword Smith by the design of the folded steel
this great really enjoyed and so good of you to have the english subtitles will be watch to learn more about these amazing swords
I didn’t forget to smash that like button Appreciate y’all all day long. Thank y’all for including English subtitles.

Cameraman breathing sounds like darth Vader lol .. Anyway, i really love all kinds of japanese sword.. Such a beauty, but deadly at same time.
Hello friends, I do not know your language, but I can understand the videos about your history, but more importantly, the tradition of mutual respect is a tradition that we should emulate. I live in Cambodia and I have practiced karate, your historical sport as well. Nice to meet you, thank you
the way of the sword is a concept that many take for granted
Wow such subtle chartaristics im impressed at how beautiful this craft is .
Thank you very much for having captions in English available. This video was amazing!
Thankyou Yuriko Seshimo! I want to visit your sword store someday to buy a beautiful katana for tenshin ryu hyoho training!
The best of the best swords shop I've ever seen the swords looks beautiful
Thank you for sharing this part of your culture and history. As Soldier I appreciate the beauty of these weapons, as an artist they are masterpieces! 🙏
Not going to lie I drooled the entire video

I can admire the beauty of a women and a blades forever...
Wow!..beauty working with beauty.Much respects.
Wow this was very inspirational! I've practiced iaido since I was a teen and wondered if there were any woman blacksmiths or arms dealers in Japan. Thank you for this video~
Man if time permits, I would visit Japan again. Spend a few days. Love the dedication with everything they do.
Such a respect she has in what she does it looks really high quality
Walaupun saya dari Indonesia, saya kagum dengan samurai. Elegan dan kharismatik. Terima kasih videonya
Thank you for the wonderful video, it brings me great joy to see women enjoying Nihonto.
I just realise that Japanese nod their head a lot when talking
I like Japanese swords, it is so beautiful and sharp.
I LOVE THAT SHE CONTINUE THE FAMILY LEGACY
Japan is an Amazing country in the world having such a great talented peoples i love Japan
Everything I see the Japanese do seems like an artistic ceremony, I admire these people so much 🌹
You pay a lot of money for such lesson and probably more with expensive dinners.
beauty, craftsmanship and respect for tradition, japan is a beacon in these dark times.
not sure
I love the Japanese eye for detail and design.
These people can actually trace when, who, or where the katana is crafted just by looking at it, they have so much knowledge about these swords, but the learning doesnt stop there.
This is a neat video. Thank you for the production.
Thank you very much for watching. I will post more video soon.
Gorgeous craftsmanship.
Wow it feels like they can even see the swordsmith's feelings when he crafted the sword,his moods,the season and time that it was created.
An interesting documentary about Japanese culture, starring cool people, scored with jazz music? I could watch this all day
Thank you very much.
Great video ! . She is amazing and dedicated .
I have high admiration for the Japanese culture. Nice video!
Thank you very much for watching.
I like this colection sword, nice to meet you from indonesia
Thank you for the education.
So knowledgeable and beautiful too!
Great content. Thank you.
I have always loved the beauty of the Katana.
I am only saddened, by having only handled one, that could be considered "real".
I will come visit the store either this year or next.
Wonderful informative program. Thank you
Thank you! I love swords
If I ever got the chance to visit Japan, this is the 1 place I'd love to see.
Some beautiful looking swords.
A cool beautiful business to pursuit
Very instructive
Thank you very much
Good video, thanks for sharing, Good luck to this young woman,
Professional sword girl.🤗👍
What a beautiful shop and fascinating video! In my opinion, the Japanese are consistently the best artisans in the world. They take great pride in everything they do, and make. Their handmade items, whatever they are, are among the very best in the world.
Very well done video. Thank you.
I just came across your channel and I love your videos. They are very informative and I’ve learned a lot of valuable information watching them. Please subtitle more of your videos in English please. As I am a beginning collector and love the learning experience you provide through your videos. Thank you. Warm regards from the State’s.
Thank you very much for watching. I will put more video’s English subtitles.
I was always fascinated by Japanese swords. Thank you for sharing!
The ancient swords smiths were able to achieve perfection in ther swords. An unbelievable feat, that can’t be matched today. It’s amazing.
Didn't understand a single word, but enjoyed this video.
I have enjoyed the Tampa sword show. There I held many swords but the real treasure was the old timer dealers with their stories. As they have been dying off, too few are taking their place. I wonder if the China virus has finished it off? Good to see young people take interest!
Nice video.. One day I hope to own a beautifully crafted, traditionally made, Japanese sword.
Thank you very much for watching.
Man, one of the few things I want to own even just for display
I would hope you only display it and not actually use it for what they were made for lol.
This channel is perfect.
In a way I’m glad I missed this store when I’ve been to Ginza. I would have walked out of it quite broke.
Couldn't help it but the study sessions reminded me of Blind Tasting of wines on the way to becoming a Sommelier.
I admire the respect and profound depth within the interactions of the Japanese people.
刀剣女子はいつもの『～女子』っていう電通のステマで、刀剣女子なんて存在しなかったけど、後継ぎならがんばってもらいたいものだ。
This channel needs to blow up!!!
Beautiful!
